Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:44,308 --> 00:00:45,713
World in Action...
2
00:00:46,060 --> 00:00:47,466
enters the struggling,
3
00:00:47,516 --> 00:00:48,709
changing world...
4
00:00:48,747 --> 00:00:50,531
of the seven year old.
5
00:00:55,266 --> 00:00:57,386
They're teddy bears,
they're not real.
6
00:01:00,190 --> 00:01:03,289
A Polar, look at those claws.
7
00:01:03,944 --> 00:01:05,743
This is no ordinary
outing to the zoo.
8
00:01:06,146 --> 00:01:07,803
It's a very
special ocassion.
9
00:01:08,398 --> 00:01:11,633
We brought these twenty children
together for the very first time.
10
00:01:14,902 --> 00:01:16,137
They are like any
other children...
11
00:01:16,449 --> 00:01:20,642
except that they come from
startlingly different backgrounds.
12
00:01:22,326 --> 00:01:24,721
No!
No feeding, it says.
13
00:01:32,171 --> 00:01:34,087
Stop it at once
14
00:01:36,325 --> 00:01:39,806
I know there's no feeding but it
doesn't really matter.
15
00:01:41,304 --> 00:01:42,459
We brought these
children together...
16
00:01:43,148 --> 00:01:44,301
because we wanted a glimpse of...
17
00:01:44,773 --> 00:01:47,506
England in the year 2000.
18
00:01:49,139 --> 00:01:54,809
The shop stewards and the executives of
the year 2000 are now seven years old.
19
00:01:56,646 --> 00:01:58,436
Give me a child until he is seven...
20
00:01:58,974 --> 00:02:01,071
and I will give you the man.
21
00:02:05,897 --> 00:02:07,782
Let's get to know these children.
22
00:02:09,442 --> 00:02:11,823
Taking her little sister to school
on the London Council Estate,
23
00:02:12,875 --> 00:02:13,891
Jackie.
24
00:02:23,292 --> 00:02:24,904
From the Yorkshire Dales,
25
00:02:25,516 --> 00:02:26,567
Nicholas.
26
00:02:29,181 --> 00:02:31,250
He goes to a one
room village school...
27
00:02:31,718 --> 00:02:33,825
four miles away from his home.
28
00:02:39,457 --> 00:02:40,695
From this Liverpool suburb...
29
00:02:41,427 --> 00:02:42,192
We chose...
30
00:02:42,428 --> 00:02:43,785
Neil.
31
00:03:01,958 --> 00:03:03,993
And this is Tony.
32
00:03:05,557 --> 00:03:08,267
His girl friend
calls him a monkey.
33
00:03:15,374 --> 00:03:16,804
He goes to one of
the oldest schools...
34
00:03:17,453 --> 00:03:19,206
in the East End of London.
35
00:03:45,189 --> 00:03:47,741
Would everybody,
please sit round now?
36
00:03:48,055 --> 00:03:51,318
Get on with their work, I don't
want to see any backs to me.
37
00:03:52,593 --> 00:03:53,741
Shouldn't be anybody turning around...
38
00:03:54,060 --> 00:03:55,594
Tony, do you hear as well?
39
00:03:57,142 --> 00:03:59,046
Next to Tony there
is his girl friend,
40
00:03:59,100 --> 00:04:00,277
Michelle.
41
00:04:00,422 --> 00:04:01,697
Tony!
42
00:04:02,589 --> 00:04:04,198
Don't turn around again!
43
00:04:16,783 --> 00:04:19,000
In this class room,
Waltzing Matilda...
44
00:04:19,508 --> 00:04:21,770
is being rendered in Latin.
45
00:04:22,660 --> 00:04:24,713
This is an exclusive
pre-prep school...
46
00:04:25,262 --> 00:04:26,728
in Kensington.
47
00:04:30,509 --> 00:04:32,352
I think the Beatles are mad...
48
00:04:32,603 --> 00:04:34,417
because they make too much noise...
49
00:04:34,966 --> 00:04:37,261
and their hair-style's so bad.
50
00:04:37,532 --> 00:04:38,884
If they composed
51
00:04:40,471 --> 00:04:41,935
softer music...
52
00:04:42,703 --> 00:04:44,397
I wouldn't mind so much.
53
00:04:46,169 --> 00:04:47,357
I just loathe their hair-cuts
54
00:04:48,455 --> 00:04:49,562
That was John.
55
00:04:49,969 --> 00:04:51,208
If you loathe their hair-cut...
56
00:04:51,830 --> 00:04:55,690
you wouldn't have liked
Henry the Fifths hair-cut.
57
00:05:00,798 --> 00:05:02,443
This is Charles.
58
00:05:06,542 --> 00:05:08,489
And that is Andrew.
59
00:05:14,685 --> 00:05:16,827
This dormetary is in
a children's home...
60
00:05:17,415 --> 00:05:19,099
supported by charity.
61
00:05:24,792 --> 00:05:25,701
This is Paul...
62
00:05:30,451 --> 00:05:31,610
and Simon.
63
00:05:32,829 --> 00:05:37,206
I had a dream when all the
world was on top of me...
64
00:05:38,258 --> 00:05:42,399
and everything was on me,
and I just about got out
65
00:05:43,537 --> 00:05:45,368
and everything flew up in the air...
66
00:05:46,485 --> 00:05:48,486
and that all landed on my head.
67
00:05:49,500 --> 00:05:50,590
Go on Potter.
68
00:05:52,298 --> 00:05:53,447
If you don't now, don't go.
69
00:05:54,253 --> 00:05:55,317
Now shoot!
- We're going to!
70
00:05:56,492 --> 00:06:02,159
My heart's desire is to see my daddy
who is six thousand miles away.
71
00:06:04,112 --> 00:06:06,076
Bruce doesn't live with
his parents either...
72
00:06:06,091 --> 00:06:07,323
but for a different reason.
73
00:06:07,832 --> 00:06:09,942
He goes to a private
boarding school in Surrey.
74
00:06:10,932 --> 00:06:13,282
Bruce wants to be a missionary.
75
00:06:13,552 --> 00:06:18,936
I think the most important thing in the
world is everyone should know about god.
76
00:06:19,549 --> 00:06:23,174
I think we should give all... some...
77
00:06:23,579 --> 00:06:26,045
most of our money to the poor people.
78
00:06:34,245 --> 00:06:35,504
In the head mistress' study...
79
00:06:35,775 --> 00:06:37,874
of a fashionable school for girls...
80
00:06:38,418 --> 00:06:40,545
we met Suzie.
81
00:06:42,709 --> 00:06:45,768
We spoke to her "deep in the
chintz" of the staff room.
82
00:06:47,130 --> 00:06:49,131
Tell us, do you have
any boyfriend Suzie?
83
00:06:51,050 --> 00:06:51,853
Ummm...
84
00:06:52,477 --> 00:06:54,721
yes!
-Tell me about him.
85
00:06:55,916 --> 00:07:00,451
He's up in Scotland
and I think he's thirteen.
86
00:07:01,691 --> 00:07:07,486
and I'm rather lonely up there
because he usually goes to school.
87
00:07:07,833 --> 00:07:09,486
but we usually play till about...
88
00:07:10,213 --> 00:07:13,559
half past six when he
comes home from school.
89
00:07:14,053 --> 00:07:15,569
Then we go in and then...
90
00:07:16,447 --> 00:07:18,505
he goes home to do his homework.
91
00:07:20,699 --> 00:07:22,155
The world of the seven year old...
92
00:07:22,822 --> 00:07:25,130
can be primitive... even violent.
93
00:07:57,656 --> 00:08:01,106
What do the children themselves
think about fighting?
94
00:08:01,949 --> 00:08:05,375
Is it important to fight? Yes!
95
00:08:06,186 --> 00:08:10,985
Well I feel like joining in
when there's already a fight.
96
00:08:12,506 --> 00:08:14,064
I always feel like that.
97
00:08:16,407 --> 00:08:19,401
I always feel like joining in
when there's already one.
98
00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:22,456
Neil from the Liverpool suburb.
99
00:08:23,672 --> 00:08:28,091
We don't do much fighting in school
because we think it's horrible and
100
00:08:28,498 --> 00:08:29,121
It hurts.
101
00:08:29,419 --> 00:08:34,298
Sometimes we play nice with the boys
and sometimes we argue with the boys.
102
00:08:34,398 --> 00:08:38,246
- Susan, Jackie's friend.
- Do you ever fight with them?
- No, just argue
103
00:08:38,324 --> 00:08:41,768
Most of the time we are all right.
But. one day when
104
00:08:42,155 --> 00:08:44,296
I remember we were
all coming to school and
105
00:08:45,327 --> 00:08:49,750
at break time they started hitting us
and so we started to fight!
106
00:08:50,082 --> 00:08:53,342
so we said we're never gonna
play with you again.
107
00:08:53,648 --> 00:08:55,348
But we always do.
108
00:08:56,116 --> 00:09:03,210
If they fight me I think someone if
someone comes up and starts fighting...
109
00:09:03,616 --> 00:09:05,445
then I think it serves them right
110
00:09:05,865 --> 00:09:08,790
We play with Richard the
Lion Heart and William Tell.
111
00:09:09,705 --> 00:09:11,868
Well... we pretend we got swords...
112
00:09:12,404 --> 00:09:14,899
and then we make the
noises of the sword-fighting...
113
00:09:15,181 --> 00:09:18,352
and when somebody stabs us we'll go
....'aaaaaahh'!
114
00:09:18,985 --> 00:09:20,150
Nicholas from Yorkshire...
115
00:09:20,357 --> 00:09:21,361
seven this year.
116
00:09:22,689 --> 00:09:25,098
I have quite a lot of
fun when I fight...
117
00:09:27,887 --> 00:09:32,644
I always like to wait till someone...
you better watch out for me...
118
00:09:33,034 --> 00:09:34,766
because as soon
as you're not looking...
119
00:09:35,135 --> 00:09:41,083
I like to dash up and put my hands
in front and hit them against your back.
120
00:09:41,828 --> 00:09:42,674
And on the grass...
121
00:09:43,234 --> 00:09:45,875
we... we play international wrestling.
122
00:09:46,364 --> 00:09:48,239
Yeah that's only in the
summer time though.
123
00:09:48,866 --> 00:09:50,725
yes summer we
can go on the grass.
124
00:09:50,987 --> 00:09:54,669
I just like fighting somehow.
- Yes, tell me about it.
125
00:09:54,882 --> 00:10:02,050
I just want to. He was in the
washroom and threw soap at me
126
00:10:02,635 --> 00:10:06,487
I chased him in the
class and I hit him
127
00:10:06,773 --> 00:10:09,177
When I was down in
the place at Kent...
128
00:10:09,905 --> 00:10:15,676
there was this little boy who I think
was younger than me... and...
129
00:10:16,938 --> 00:10:19,410
my Nanny was having
a game with him...
130
00:10:20,686 --> 00:10:24,241
and he was a naughty boy because
he slapped me in the tummy.
131
00:10:25,067 --> 00:10:27,672
Some boys can be nice and
others can be horrible.
132
00:10:28,621 --> 00:10:30,930
And then he slapped Nanny...
133
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:33,690
and I didn't like
that kind of boys.
134
00:10:34,266 --> 00:10:37,392
Jacqueline, what do you think
about boys fighting?
135
00:10:37,748 --> 00:10:40,655
Well... its really silly
to fight because...
136
00:10:41,239 --> 00:10:45,906
if you fight and Miss comes in the
class-room then you only get told off
137
00:10:46,595 --> 00:10:48,954
I think discipline is fair enough.
138
00:10:49,190 --> 00:10:53,989
Farmer is the sergeant and he is quite
a good one, last term he wasn't...
139
00:10:54,665 --> 00:10:55,929
He had a cold
140
00:10:56,650 --> 00:10:59,779
and he didn't want to wear his
voice out from shouting.
141
00:11:08,689 --> 00:11:12,604
And that's Farmer.
He gives me nightmares.
142
00:11:42,748 --> 00:11:45,373
The vast majority of the seven years
olds know little of discipline.
143
00:11:46,558 --> 00:11:48,359
But a few, from the
moment they are born...
144
00:11:48,814 --> 00:11:50,143
are trained to accept it.
145
00:11:52,147 --> 00:11:54,120
squad steady
146
00:11:55,345 --> 00:11:57,972
squad left foot
in one place
147
00:11:59,248 --> 00:12:01,374
squad breathe in
148
00:12:17,373 --> 00:12:20,112
Well I don't like
149
00:12:20,894 --> 00:12:23,906
the big boys
hitting us
150
00:12:24,249 --> 00:12:29,673
The prefects sending us
out for nothing. And they
151
00:12:30,067 --> 00:12:32,832
the staff in washroom
sends the nurse out
152
00:12:33,442 --> 00:12:37,065
where there is no talking, no
I wasn't talking today...
153
00:12:37,165 --> 00:12:39,533
and Brown set me up for nothing.
154
00:12:40,546 --> 00:12:43,498
I think the system
of having House Captains...
155
00:12:44,723 --> 00:12:47,698
is rather good because when
somebody's naughty
156
00:12:48,324 --> 00:12:54,573
the House Captain asks him and...
and... and has a talk to him.
157
00:12:55,578 --> 00:12:58,422
Once I had a talk to Gravel
he was in my house...
158
00:13:00,097 --> 00:13:05,423
and...and I asked Sir he could put
him out of my house because...
159
00:13:05,523 --> 00:13:07,623
he was always getting minuses.
160
00:13:08,816 --> 00:13:10,095
What did the sir say?
-Yes.
161
00:13:10,375 --> 00:13:11,930
The sir said that he was...
162
00:13:12,394 --> 00:13:15,679
he... we would see
about it this term.
163
00:13:16,912 --> 00:13:18,907
Well... I think
it's a very good system.
164
00:13:19,007 --> 00:13:20,672
And you had to
speak to anyone?
165
00:13:20,772 --> 00:13:22,612
Just because you
are one, I suppose.
166
00:13:23,366 --> 00:13:24,719
No, no,
I haven't.
167
00:13:25,283 --> 00:13:26,002
You're not
are you?
168
00:13:26,283 --> 00:13:30,523
But I am. Straull Meckanace.
got three minuses in a day.
169
00:13:31,630 --> 00:13:32,538
He is
a pest.
170
00:13:32,778 --> 00:13:36,070
You think, House Captain should be
elected or appointed by sir?
171
00:13:36,365 --> 00:13:37,164
Appointed.
172
00:13:37,466 --> 00:13:38,392
Appointed
173
00:13:38,601 --> 00:13:40,479
I think its more
fair to have elected.
174
00:13:40,579 --> 00:13:43,626
Yes. So do I but I think it is best
to be appointed. -Because you didn't...
175
00:13:43,967 --> 00:13:46,158
It saves lot of time.
-It doesn't!
176
00:13:46,585 --> 00:13:47,407
Appointed!
177
00:13:48,093 --> 00:13:51,019
It is much easier because all
that you have to do is...
178
00:13:51,237 --> 00:13:53,888
count up the pluses and here
you are. -Yes!
179
00:13:55,676 --> 00:13:56,473
At Suzie's
school...
180
00:13:57,150 --> 00:13:59,579
the exercise
is classical ballet.
181
00:14:09,327 --> 00:14:10,421
For Neil and
his classmates...
182
00:14:10,845 --> 00:14:12,771
its free
movement to music.
183
00:14:23,111 --> 00:14:27,196
Michelle and her friends are
left to amuse themselves.
184
00:14:34,505 --> 00:14:40,361
This distinction between freedom and
discipline is the key to their whole future.
185
00:15:15,177 --> 00:15:16,488
What about after school?
186
00:15:17,547 --> 00:15:19,657
What do they do
in their spare time?
187
00:15:21,239 --> 00:15:23,250
When I've gone
home, I have tea.
188
00:15:23,898 --> 00:15:26,206
Then I practice my piano.
189
00:15:27,180 --> 00:15:29,494
And then I
practice my recorder.
190
00:15:30,604 --> 00:15:33,052
Then I start
watching television.
191
00:15:34,378 --> 00:15:35,643
What time do you go to bed?
192
00:15:36,074 --> 00:15:38,929
When I have my
bath at six o'clock...
193
00:15:40,258 --> 00:15:44,410
and then go to bed at seven and
read till half past seven.
194
00:15:45,022 --> 00:15:49,127
I usually go to bed at ten o'clock
or eleven o'clock.
195
00:15:50,386 --> 00:15:51,583
When I go home...
196
00:15:52,507 --> 00:15:53,933
I go and see my mother...
197
00:15:54,742 --> 00:15:57,075
and I have tea
and watch t.v....
198
00:16:01,156 --> 00:16:06,664
and then I... I do my homework and
then I go and see my father.
199
00:16:07,980 --> 00:16:10,381
And then what
time do you go to bed?
200
00:16:13,121 --> 00:16:15,756
last night I didn't go
to bed until seven.
201
00:16:16,631 --> 00:16:18,759
When I go home, I come...
202
00:16:19,174 --> 00:16:21,904
I come in and mummy
gives me a cup of tea...
203
00:16:22,437 --> 00:16:23,924
and then I go
out and play.
204
00:16:24,650 --> 00:16:26,731
And when it
starts to get dark...
205
00:16:27,193 --> 00:16:29,733
I come in again and put on t.v.
206
00:17:08,016 --> 00:17:14,551
I am the only child in the village
except for my baby brother.
207
00:17:15,401 --> 00:17:18,199
he was one last Friday...
208
00:17:19,043 --> 00:17:21,304
I mean the friday
before last Friday...
209
00:17:28,147 --> 00:17:29,244
Neil from Liverpool,
210
00:17:29,568 --> 00:17:32,392
said he prefered
living in town.
211
00:17:33,054 --> 00:17:35,665
Because in the winter, if
you lived in the country...
212
00:17:36,244 --> 00:17:39,634
it would be just all be wet and there
wouldn't be anything for miles around
213
00:17:40,997 --> 00:17:46,387
And you get soaked if you try to go out
and there's no shelter anywhere...
214
00:17:46,671 --> 00:17:47,824
except in your own house.
215
00:17:48,088 --> 00:17:49,830
But in the town
you can go out on...
216
00:17:50,140 --> 00:17:53,363
wet, wintery days because you
can always find somewhere to shelter...
217
00:17:53,593 --> 00:17:55,607
because there
are lots of places.
218
00:17:56,020 --> 00:18:00,127
They'd like to come out for a holiday
in the country when we like...
219
00:18:00,689 --> 00:18:03,763
when I like the
holiday in the town.
220
00:18:16,171 --> 00:18:17,767
In Tony and
Michelle's school...
221
00:18:18,154 --> 00:18:18,847
unlike others...
222
00:18:19,272 --> 00:18:21,368
boys and girls are brought
together in the class room.
223
00:18:21,975 --> 00:18:25,839
And they meet quite naturally in the
cinema queue on Saturday morning.
224
00:18:47,610 --> 00:18:50,269
Sometime on Saturday
mornings I go to the cinema
225
00:18:51,346 --> 00:18:54,207
Sometime with my friends
and sometimes with him.
226
00:18:55,242 --> 00:18:56,711
You don't!
- I do!
227
00:18:56,912 --> 00:18:58,633
she doesn't
228
00:18:59,168 --> 00:19:01,400
I dont always see you
229
00:19:03,751 --> 00:19:05,874
you go to a different cinema
230
00:19:06,669 --> 00:19:10,008
last week i went to
the.....where you go
231
00:19:10,527 --> 00:19:11,724
yeah but i didn't go
232
00:19:13,551 --> 00:19:16,553
How much does mixing or
segregating the sexes matter?
233
00:19:17,239 --> 00:19:20,791
What effect does it have on what
boys and girls think about each other?
234
00:19:21,432 --> 00:19:23,819
will it influence their chances
of love and marriage?
235
00:19:24,586 --> 00:19:27,233
We asked the children what they
thought about the opposite sex.
236
00:19:28,531 --> 00:19:30,292
Tell me do you
have any girlfriends?
237
00:19:30,895 --> 00:19:32,182
Well... not many.
238
00:19:32,869 --> 00:19:33,856
What do you think about girls?
239
00:19:34,417 --> 00:19:35,975
well not much.
240
00:19:36,542 --> 00:19:37,824
I dont think much of girls.
241
00:19:38,470 --> 00:19:40,087
Touch a boy, kiss a boy.
242
00:19:40,637 --> 00:19:42,793
Sometimes we get
our own back and say...
243
00:19:42,995 --> 00:19:44,613
catch a girl and kiss a girl.
244
00:19:45,263 --> 00:19:46,003
Yeah
245
00:19:46,653 --> 00:19:47,530
And what was that?
246
00:19:47,950 --> 00:19:51,160
The girls are always screaming.
-Yeah
247
00:19:51,532 --> 00:19:52,969
When we catch them,
248
00:19:53,844 --> 00:19:55,571
we kiss them,
-Yes.
249
00:19:55,848 --> 00:19:59,567
And when its catch a boy, kiss a boy
when the girls catch us, they kiss us..
250
00:20:00,167 --> 00:20:01,589
they say 'aaaaah'...
-Yeah.
251
00:20:01,906 --> 00:20:03,173
but much louder though.
252
00:20:03,511 --> 00:20:06,448
If we did...
all love Jeffrey
253
00:20:06,795 --> 00:20:08,486
we all want to marry.
- Yeah.
254
00:20:08,751 --> 00:20:13,798
I think I know the one that
he likes best and that's her.
255
00:20:14,110 --> 00:20:16,283
Susan most of
all likes Lesley
256
00:20:16,830 --> 00:20:18,731
She told me before.
-Do I?
257
00:20:18,831 --> 00:20:22,570
You said, she keeps
changing her mind though
258
00:20:22,670 --> 00:20:24,461
Yeah! I don't know
which one really
259
00:20:25,231 --> 00:20:29,421
Well, my girlfriend
is in Africa...
260
00:20:29,663 --> 00:20:33,321
and I don't think I have another
chance of seeing her again...
261
00:20:34,214 --> 00:20:39,341
and there were two in Switzerland which
I liked too in a hotel, Park Hotel.
262
00:20:40,714 --> 00:20:42,570
Well, I know he is hers...
263
00:20:43,133 --> 00:20:44,434
He loves her.
264
00:20:44,892 --> 00:20:46,521
I don't, I love him.
265
00:20:48,675 --> 00:20:49,622
And these two...
266
00:20:50,053 --> 00:20:51,290
I love you, I love Christopher
267
00:20:52,152 --> 00:20:55,145
See, he loves Suzan
because Suzan loves him.
268
00:20:55,853 --> 00:20:58,765
He loves Lindsay and Lindsay loves him.
-I don't love him
269
00:20:59,101 --> 00:21:02,082
once Caroline Tetford said
270
00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:06,483
She loved me.
-And what happened after that?
271
00:21:06,936 --> 00:21:10,099
And I am going to marry...
I marry her when I grow up.
272
00:21:12,002 --> 00:21:15,182
I hate her. She's always getting
bad tempered and cross with me.
273
00:21:15,333 --> 00:21:16,218
Is she?
274
00:21:16,430 --> 00:21:21,574
Yes! Neil Hughes! Move your desk forward
and sometimes... and sometimes...
275
00:21:22,861 --> 00:21:26,834
when...when she is supposed to have
the chair on the back of the desk...
276
00:21:26,934 --> 00:21:30,089
and when I take it...
when I put it back...
277
00:21:30,189 --> 00:21:32,564
she says, 'Neil Hughes!' take
your chair forward.
278
00:21:32,664 --> 00:21:36,058
And she just gets into a girly
cross with me like that.
279
00:21:36,539 --> 00:21:38,931
I'd like to get
married when I grow up.
280
00:21:40,688 --> 00:21:43,809
But I don't know what sort of
boy but I think one...
281
00:21:48,703 --> 00:21:51,406
thats not got
lot of money but is...
282
00:21:51,898 --> 00:21:55,083
has got some money.
Not a lot though!
283
00:21:55,578 --> 00:21:57,908
Would you like
to get married Paul?
284
00:21:58,008 --> 00:22:00,015
Tell me why not!
285
00:22:02,037 --> 00:22:06,878
I don't like it. Say... say
you had a wife...
286
00:22:07,893 --> 00:22:12,157
Say... say you have to eat
what they cooked you
287
00:22:13,232 --> 00:22:16,205
And say I don't
like greens well I don't...
288
00:22:18,126 --> 00:22:23,321
And say... she says you have to eat
what you're given... so...
289
00:22:23,884 --> 00:22:28,541
I don't like greens so if she gives
me greens then... then that's it
290
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:32,150
When I get married I don't
want to have any children...
291
00:22:32,675 --> 00:22:36,873
Because they are always
doing naughty things and...
292
00:22:37,353 --> 00:22:39,247
making the
whole house untidy.
293
00:22:39,730 --> 00:22:42,651
When I get married I will
like to have two children.
294
00:22:43,702 --> 00:22:47,294
You'll have Nanny to look after
but you won't look after them?
295
00:22:52,039 --> 00:22:54,615
No I want a
Nanny to look after them.
296
00:22:55,258 --> 00:23:00,118
If I could I would have two girls
and two boys. -Yes so would I
297
00:23:00,576 --> 00:23:01,776
And what about you Jackie?
298
00:23:02,301 --> 00:23:05,668
My Mom because she got five
girls she had seven years bad luck
299
00:23:06,229 --> 00:23:09,522
and seven years is a bad luck
thats why she has got five girls.
300
00:23:10,322 --> 00:23:14,659
And so... when my baby was
supposed to be born...
301
00:23:15,549 --> 00:23:17,447
and we all wished
it was a boy but...
302
00:23:17,801 --> 00:23:20,866
But we were all waiting in my nans
for my dad 'cause he visited her
303
00:23:21,874 --> 00:23:24,989
he came home and said
"it's another girl kids"
304
00:23:25,265 --> 00:23:27,140
we all said "awwwww!"
305
00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:29,757
What do you think about
girl friends at your age?
306
00:23:30,859 --> 00:23:33,435
I've got one but I
don't think much of her.
307
00:23:34,340 --> 00:23:37,926
No but I said that when
boys go around with girls...
308
00:23:38,277 --> 00:23:40,499
they don't pay attention
to what they're doing.
309
00:23:40,935 --> 00:23:43,032
My Grand mother had
an accident because...
310
00:23:43,421 --> 00:23:47,315
a boy friend was kissing... his
girl friend in the street.
311
00:23:48,024 --> 00:23:52,609
The girls never... never... never
do what the boys want them.
312
00:23:53,025 --> 00:23:55,462
They always start
playing with dolls...
313
00:23:55,744 --> 00:23:59,490
when boys want to play rough and tumble.
-It's not true!
314
00:24:00,075 --> 00:24:04,582
They're rather boring you never get a
chance to play with them and things like
315
00:24:04,793 --> 00:24:05,669
rough and tumble...
316
00:24:05,870 --> 00:24:08,574
And they always start
playing with their dolls.
317
00:24:09,123 --> 00:24:11,887
Yes... as soon as you start...
-and silly things like that...
318
00:24:12,172 --> 00:24:16,741
Only intelligent girls start playing with
you -and they always take you away...
319
00:24:16,841 --> 00:24:19,804
from whatever game
you are playing yourself.
320
00:24:19,904 --> 00:24:23,330
Yes! They say `I don't want to
play that game with you...'
321
00:24:23,682 --> 00:24:25,395
and they don't stop crying.
- Yes!
322
00:24:25,645 --> 00:24:26,877
Do you have a girl friend?
323
00:24:31,566 --> 00:24:33,686
I don't want to answer that.
324
00:24:34,204 --> 00:24:38,226
I don't want to answer
those kinds of questions.
325
00:24:39,397 --> 00:24:41,190
They Love.
-That's right!
326
00:24:41,472 --> 00:24:42,816
Back to love, 'amo'.
327
00:24:43,174 --> 00:24:46,418
Now let's have the
present tense of 'amo'.
328
00:24:46,518 --> 00:24:48,108
Amos, amas, amant...
329
00:24:48,482 --> 00:24:50,016
anamus, amatis, amant.
330
00:24:50,295 --> 00:24:54,056
Yes, What's the last one?
331
00:24:55,283 --> 00:24:57,048
Amant!
-Amant.
332
00:24:57,639 --> 00:24:59,492
Fill up the gaps on
the board there
333
00:24:59,730 --> 00:25:01,086
Have a little chalk?
-Yeah
334
00:25:02,027 --> 00:25:05,928
In your best writing please. All right!
335
00:25:12,569 --> 00:25:18,054
What's Major... what's
'amatis' mean?
336
00:25:20,857 --> 00:25:21,720
We love.
337
00:25:22,751 --> 00:25:26,380
No, Holden. Amatis?
338
00:25:27,234 --> 00:25:29,671
You love.
-You love! Second person, isn't it?
339
00:25:30,394 --> 00:25:30,892
Yes sir.
340
00:25:31,396 --> 00:25:33,465
That was silly wasn't it
341
00:25:34,548 --> 00:25:39,775
Now then Russell, let's hear
the present tense of 'porto'.
342
00:25:40,693 --> 00:25:42,724
Porto, portas, portat,
343
00:25:43,117 --> 00:25:46,726
portamus, portatis, portant.
-That's right!
344
00:25:47,263 --> 00:25:50,322
Holden, let's hear the
present tense of 'evasto'.
345
00:25:51,127 --> 00:25:55,535
Evasto, evastas... evastat,
346
00:25:56,133 --> 00:25:59,171
evastamus, evastatis. evastant.
347
00:25:59,688 --> 00:26:00,532
Yes, speak up.
348
00:26:00,782 --> 00:26:03,159
Now let's... what does `evasto' mean?
349
00:26:05,566 --> 00:26:06,539
I...
350
00:26:08,890 --> 00:26:10,401
All right, let's...
351
00:26:11,159 --> 00:26:12,589
Well, got it?
- Lay waste.
352
00:26:12,689 --> 00:26:15,124
`Evasto'- to lay waste!
353
00:26:49,257 --> 00:26:50,008
All right.
354
00:26:51,637 --> 00:26:53,167
All right you can talk again.
355
00:27:08,072 --> 00:27:12,941
Are the children themselves aware of
differences between rich and poor?
356
00:27:13,590 --> 00:27:16,006
have they learned prejudice.
357
00:27:16,499 --> 00:27:19,123
What do they think about money?
358
00:27:19,835 --> 00:27:22,552
I think it's not a bad idea
to pay for schools...
359
00:27:22,970 --> 00:27:24,034
becasue if we didn't...
360
00:27:24,721 --> 00:27:27,160
schools would be so
nasty and crowded.
361
00:27:28,034 --> 00:27:29,632
Yes.
-So do I think so.
362
00:27:29,969 --> 00:27:30,290
Yes!
363
00:27:30,390 --> 00:27:35,091
And... people in the schools wouldn't
-And poor people would come rushing in
364
00:27:35,485 --> 00:27:37,921
The man, in charge of the school...
365
00:27:38,372 --> 00:27:41,179
would get very angry
because he would...
366
00:27:41,393 --> 00:27:44,147
And he would get bankrupt.
-because he wouldn't...
367
00:27:44,398 --> 00:27:47,824
He wouldn't be able to pay all the
masters if he didn't get any money.
368
00:27:48,163 --> 00:27:50,790
Yes. I think he would get
bankrupt because paying all the...
369
00:27:50,890 --> 00:27:52,434
What does bankrupt mean?
370
00:27:52,534 --> 00:27:54,482
Having no more money
and go to prison
371
00:27:55,298 --> 00:27:57,184
Why do you have to go
to prison? That's strong!
372
00:27:57,551 --> 00:28:01,172
Because that obviously means
you've been spending it too much.
373
00:28:01,690 --> 00:28:03,598
I've got twenty three three penny pieces...
374
00:28:04,079 --> 00:28:08,060
and I don't know how many
half penny pieces I've got now
375
00:28:08,544 --> 00:28:10,676
I read The Financial Times.
376
00:28:11,521 --> 00:28:13,911
I read Observer and The Times.
377
00:28:14,369 --> 00:28:15,883
What do you like about it?
378
00:28:16,428 --> 00:28:17,521
Well, I like...
379
00:28:17,759 --> 00:28:20,165
I usually look at the
headlines then read...
380
00:28:21,018 --> 00:28:23,914
about them... about it.
381
00:28:25,425 --> 00:28:28,828
I like my newspaper because I
got shares in it
382
00:28:28,928 --> 00:28:33,402
and I know everyday what shares are
-The stuff misers like you like
383
00:28:33,621 --> 00:28:34,162
No. But...
384
00:28:34,262 --> 00:28:38,157
on Mondays they don't
move up so I don't look at it.
385
00:28:38,522 --> 00:28:42,677
What would you do if you have lots
of money, about say... two pounds?
386
00:28:42,777 --> 00:28:43,554
Me?
387
00:28:44,302 --> 00:28:45,929
I would help the poor.
388
00:28:46,298 --> 00:28:50,548
Yeah because the poor if you
don't help them they would die
389
00:28:50,964 --> 00:28:52,127
Wouldn't they?
390
00:28:52,892 --> 00:28:56,854
And everytime we've a harvest
festival, we send them food.
391
00:28:57,303 --> 00:29:04,720
Once these two, no Susan and Janet
went round giving food out
392
00:29:04,962 --> 00:29:07,197
What do you think about rich people?
393
00:29:07,761 --> 00:29:10,659
Well... not much.
394
00:29:12,029 --> 00:29:12,895
Tell me about them
395
00:29:13,122 --> 00:29:14,902
Well, they think they
can do everything...
396
00:29:15,002 --> 00:29:18,859
without you doing it as well and
they think just because they're rich...
397
00:29:18,959 --> 00:29:21,151
and they have to have people
398
00:29:21,993 --> 00:29:24,965
like they have to do
all their work and stuff.
399
00:29:25,449 --> 00:29:26,971
I don't think much of the accents.
400
00:29:27,473 --> 00:29:29,631
Neither do I.
-Neither do I.
401
00:29:29,866 --> 00:29:32,606
That doesn't prevent me liking them.
402
00:29:32,706 --> 00:29:36,259
Poor children, they boast
about themselves. - No they don't.
403
00:29:36,604 --> 00:29:41,604
Rich children boast about themselves and
say how clever I am and things like that
404
00:29:41,704 --> 00:29:46,191
Yes, and rich children always
make fun of poor children, I hate.
405
00:29:46,418 --> 00:29:51,396
Yes. -Yes they say, look at that lovely
little sissy and they laugh at them.
406
00:29:51,496 --> 00:29:53,163
Yes, and they throw things at them.
407
00:29:53,263 --> 00:29:54,104
Yes.
408
00:29:54,204 --> 00:29:56,182
And poor child gets scared to death.
409
00:29:56,499 --> 00:29:57,250
The posh ones
410
00:29:57,638 --> 00:29:59,940
Oh Yes. Oh yes. Oh Yes.
411
00:30:01,037 --> 00:30:02,523
They're nuts!
412
00:30:03,210 --> 00:30:04,341
you just have to touch them
413
00:30:04,759 --> 00:30:09,269
Jacqueline, what do you
think about coloured people?
414
00:30:09,622 --> 00:30:15,157
You said to me once that you like them
but what do you really think about them?
415
00:30:15,257 --> 00:30:19,114
Well, they're nice and its
as same as us really...
416
00:30:19,214 --> 00:30:20,843
but one thing...
417
00:30:21,441 --> 00:30:25,373
it's only because their skin is
brown and we're white...
418
00:30:25,581 --> 00:30:26,926
sort of pinkish we're.
419
00:30:27,637 --> 00:30:30,588
Some people from Africa come here...
420
00:30:30,688 --> 00:30:34,795
but when they go, they
put their clothes on
421
00:30:35,157 --> 00:30:39,947
I've only seen them on
television and places like that.
422
00:30:40,198 --> 00:30:43,241
I don't... I don't know
anybody who is coloured.
423
00:30:44,872 --> 00:30:49,402
I don't want to know anybody who is
coloured. Thank you very much!
424
00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:52,852
Coloured people. I don't
like them very much.
425
00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:57,055
No... it sounds like
ghostly coloured people.
426
00:30:57,155 --> 00:30:59,576
Do you think of a purple person...
427
00:30:59,676 --> 00:31:00,909
with red eyes,
428
00:31:01,189 --> 00:31:02,053
yellow feet and...
429
00:31:02,350 --> 00:31:07,047
I can't really think of
what they really look like.
430
00:31:07,470 --> 00:31:09,913
They are just same as me, aren't they?
431
00:31:24,137 --> 00:31:26,158
What do they think
about each other?
432
00:31:26,258 --> 00:31:28,256
And how'll they act together?
433
00:31:28,807 --> 00:31:31,278
To find out, we invited
them all to one big party...
434
00:31:31,568 --> 00:31:32,979
and joined in
435
00:32:17,744 --> 00:32:20,665
Tell me what did you
three think about...
436
00:32:20,868 --> 00:32:22,751
the other children
that you met today...
437
00:32:22,851 --> 00:32:24,680
and all that, there were
quite varieties?
438
00:32:24,888 --> 00:32:28,217
Yes but they were bit
too tough for my liking.
439
00:32:28,624 --> 00:32:32,241
Some hit me right in the back and
I 've still got some pain there.
440
00:32:32,645 --> 00:32:37,284
And well, some of them
were rather dirty.
441
00:32:37,977 --> 00:32:41,861
what did you think about them?
-I played with them quiet naturally.
442
00:32:42,282 --> 00:32:44,764
I think they were rather nice, really.
443
00:32:45,249 --> 00:32:46,569
I don't like the boys.
444
00:32:47,039 --> 00:32:50,895
Those three, I dont like
all of them. None of them.
445
00:32:50,995 --> 00:32:52,086
What about the girls?
446
00:32:52,558 --> 00:32:54,763
Yeah, I liked that girl...
447
00:32:57,010 --> 00:32:58,423
but not the boys.
448
00:32:58,523 --> 00:32:59,325
Why?
449
00:33:00,043 --> 00:33:05,960
Because once I pulled his scarf he said,
'Don't you pull my scarf' and I hate him
450
00:33:06,060 --> 00:33:08,181
And when we were at that park...
451
00:33:08,281 --> 00:33:10,800
he went round punching everybody.
452
00:33:12,575 --> 00:33:15,566
If some of our children didn't
get on with each other...
453
00:33:15,843 --> 00:33:17,696
does it really matter?
454
00:33:17,925 --> 00:33:18,704
After all...
455
00:33:18,804 --> 00:33:20,869
they're not likely to meet
in the same class room.
456
00:33:22,221 --> 00:33:23,534
At the Kensington school...
457
00:33:23,846 --> 00:33:27,893
all the boys are being prepared for
public school places and universities...
458
00:33:29,679 --> 00:33:32,924
whereas of these thirty children
getting their milk from Tony.
459
00:33:33,353 --> 00:33:36,849
Only, three are likely to win a
place at a grammer school.
460
00:33:37,545 --> 00:33:40,129
Indeed, the vast
majority will leave school...
461
00:33:40,748 --> 00:33:43,125
and start work at fifteen.
462
00:33:53,526 --> 00:33:56,216
What plans do the
children themselves have?
463
00:33:56,752 --> 00:34:02,039
When I leave the school, I'm
going to College Court...
464
00:34:04,564 --> 00:34:09,290
and then I would be going to Westminster
Boarding School if I pass the exam.
465
00:34:10,192 --> 00:34:15,501
Then we think, I am going
to Cambridge and Trinity Hall.
466
00:34:15,889 --> 00:34:17,849
What does university mean?
467
00:34:19,728 --> 00:34:20,577
Well...
468
00:34:21,531 --> 00:34:24,992
before I'm old enough to get a job
469
00:34:25,783 --> 00:34:29,845
I'll just walk around
and see what I can find.
470
00:34:30,496 --> 00:34:35,996
When I leave the school, I go
to Broadstairs, St. Peter's Court.
471
00:34:36,243 --> 00:34:40,361
And after that I'm
going to Charter House.
472
00:34:41,047 --> 00:34:46,815
And after that Trinity Hall, Cambridge.
473
00:34:47,266 --> 00:34:49,412
I like to be like Kathy Kirby
474
00:34:49,709 --> 00:34:53,407
I want to be a jockey when I grow up. Ya
I want to be a jockey when I grow up.
475
00:34:54,035 --> 00:34:55,251
When I leave school...
476
00:34:55,705 --> 00:34:57,957
I'm going to the Dragon School...
477
00:34:58,333 --> 00:34:59,235
I might.
478
00:35:00,954 --> 00:35:05,376
I might go to Charles
House, Marlborough
479
00:35:06,284 --> 00:35:07,044
And...
480
00:35:09,780 --> 00:35:14,018
I can't.... remember
all other places...
481
00:35:14,470 --> 00:35:17,919
because mummy has got so many
places... and those're some of them.
482
00:35:18,135 --> 00:35:19,729
What about university Charles?
483
00:35:20,020 --> 00:35:22,007
I might go to Oxford.
484
00:35:22,896 --> 00:35:23,669
Well...
485
00:35:24,897 --> 00:35:28,774
I don't think I need to go to university
'cause I'm not gonna be a teacher.
486
00:35:29,181 --> 00:35:33,124
I don't think you want to go to
university if you want to be an astronaut
487
00:35:33,590 --> 00:35:36,186
When I grow up, I want
to be an astronaut but...
488
00:35:36,456 --> 00:35:40,712
if I can't be an astonaut
I think I'll be a coach driver.
489
00:35:40,939 --> 00:35:42,449
Tell me about the coach driver.
490
00:35:42,549 --> 00:35:44,627
Well, I'm going to take
people to the country...
491
00:35:45,423 --> 00:35:47,686
and sometimes take them
to the sea-side and...
492
00:35:48,942 --> 00:35:53,786
And I'll have a big loud speaker on the
coach and tell them where about we're...
493
00:35:54,101 --> 00:35:55,819
and what we're going to do.
494
00:35:56,795 --> 00:35:58,400
And what's the name of the road is.
495
00:35:59,198 --> 00:36:00,455
All about that.
496
00:36:00,933 --> 00:36:03,361
When... if I can't be an astonaut
I would like to be a...
497
00:36:04,543 --> 00:36:07,017
a bridal sergeant
in the police force...
498
00:36:07,317 --> 00:36:08,360
like my dad is.
499
00:36:08,661 --> 00:36:10,210
I was gonna be a policeman but...
500
00:36:10,787 --> 00:36:14,183
how thought how hard
it would be to join in.
501
00:36:14,739 --> 00:36:16,034
When I leave the school,
502
00:36:16,889 --> 00:36:21,832
I'm down for Heathfield and
Southfield Manor and then maybe,
503
00:36:22,141 --> 00:36:25,189
I may want to go to a university...
504
00:36:25,391 --> 00:36:26,798
but I don't know which one yet.
505
00:36:27,510 --> 00:36:31,030
I'll buy myself a nice new
made house you know.
506
00:36:31,712 --> 00:36:34,188
one thats all nice and comfy.
507
00:36:34,808 --> 00:36:36,765
I am going to work in Woolworths
508
00:36:37,312 --> 00:36:43,331
When I grow up I like to find out
all about the moon and all that.
509
00:36:43,658 --> 00:36:45,705
Well, going to Africa...
510
00:36:46,446 --> 00:36:48,457
and try and teach people...
511
00:36:48,790 --> 00:36:50,946
who are not civilized...
512
00:36:51,191 --> 00:36:54,244
to be more or less good.
513
00:37:05,205 --> 00:37:08,103
At the end of their very
special day in London...
514
00:37:08,341 --> 00:37:10,863
after their trip to the
zoo and the party...
515
00:37:11,404 --> 00:37:14,345
we took our children to
an adventure play ground...
516
00:37:14,445 --> 00:37:17,305
where they could do
just what they like.
517
00:37:19,082 --> 00:37:23,279
There's from a children's home
set about building a house.
518
00:37:38,323 --> 00:37:40,082
That's Nicholas.
519
00:37:41,463 --> 00:37:43,367
And Tony.
520
00:38:09,701 --> 00:38:11,502
Andrew.
521
00:38:11,721 --> 00:38:13,440
And Bruce.
522
00:38:23,811 --> 00:38:25,469
John.
523
00:38:29,178 --> 00:38:30,932
Suzie.
524
00:38:32,829 --> 00:38:34,344
Jackie and her friends.
525
00:38:41,111 --> 00:38:43,250
Give me a child until he is seven...
526
00:38:43,495 --> 00:38:45,255
and I will give you the man.
527
00:38:54,469 --> 00:38:57,921
This has been a glimpse
of Britain's future.
